Nine months ago, the veil of reality first thinned, allowing Wiktor Szulski to step into the shadows of 20th-century Warsaw and begin taming demonic Salutors like a mystical Pokémon master. Now, that veil parts once more, this time for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, as it’s available for this platform owners!
The Thaumaturge, the story-driven RPG from 11 bit studios and Fool’s Theory, invites you into a world of rich narrative, morally complex choices, and strategic turn-based combat. Step into Wiktor Szulski’s shoes as he returns to his hometown after years away, only to uncover mysteries, face his inner demons, and shape the fate of a city teetering between crime and grandeur.
If you’re curious about what the game offers, I’ve reviewed The Thaumaturge in detail. Check out my thoughts and insights here before diving into the adventure yourself!
A Journey into the Shadows of Warsaw
Wiktor’s journey begins with a family ceremony, but Warsaw in the early 1900s is a city of stark contrasts. From the opulent districts brimming with luxury hotels and vibrant bars to the impoverished shacks of Powiśle, every street tells a story. Amid these contrasts, Wiktor wields his powers as a thaumaturge, a master of mystical manipulation, and tames Salutors, demons inspired by Slavic folklore.
In The Thaumaturge, every decision matters. Use your skills to influence others, delve into their secrets, and command your Salutors to tip the scales in battles or investigations. Whether navigating treacherous social landscapes or fighting sinister foes, the choices you make will shape not only your story but the lives of those around you.
